Hi, I am 51 and have been experiencing night sweats and breast pain for 6 years. Did not bother me too much. Periods have been on and off and now stopped.  However, recently I have been experiencing horrible symptoms of sickness, dizziness, shaking all at the same time and also bladder problems and a recent UTI.  I have googled symptoms and have had bloods taken; results Thursday, and all my symptoms seem to be menopause related.  Oh and tingling hands at night.  Anyone experienced this especially the sickness, dizziness episodes  Much appreciated as this is driving me crazy and really affecting my quality of life.XXX

      Totally relate to all you have said. I thought I would never be better but after 5 weeks of it I am having a good spell.  Vit B6 and B12 good for the dizzyness I have been told and I am going to try them.  I started around 45 with night sweats, sore breasts, itchy skin and a bit of dizzyness......on and off for 6 years! Full blown now!! Needing the toilet all the time is just the worst...I still have a bit of that but solaphenicin (spelling) helps with that; GP prescription!  One of the hardest things I think is excepting it and that it will pass.  Not easy I know.  Lots of support on here; it's a lovely forum.  Much love Margaret.XX

      Oh sorry you feel so bad.....sounds very familiar to me when I am down.  I am feeling good just now apart from a bit of bladder irritation! I have been told I am right in the menopause so at least I now know what is going on.  I have been referred to the menopause clinic.  I am going to try some supplements and I have the magnets and they seem to help!!  May be coincidence though!! It will pass Spree just hang on in there.  Much love.XX
